Weaving together the
narratives of non-conformist women from real life with those imagined, An
Unsuitable Woman introduces you to the everyday heroines in the Indian
society confronting patriarchy.This book includes seventeen inspirational and
touching contributions in the form of prose and poetry, from writers like
Anand Neelakantan, Madhavi Mahadevan, Sukla Singha, Humra Quraishi and Mitra
Phukan, among others. It offers fascinating glimpses of everyday rebellion
against patriarchy by a handful of women—from Amrita Sher-Gil, the rebel
artist to Leila Seth, the first female chief justice of a state High Court
and to Social Activist Chandraprabha’s unassailable belief in her reforms;
the legendary Nangeli who severed her breasts to assert her dissent against
an unjust social order to Jahnavi Barua’s nameless protagonist who renders
all social stigmas.Plunge into the world of these ‘unsuitable’ women and
partake of their undaunted spirit.
